Triumph’s story is one of the major successes of British manufacturing in recent years. Following the bankruptcy of the Triumph Cooperative in 1983, rights to the name were bought by entrepreneur John Bloor. Mr Bloor, whose Bloor Holdings company is still the sole owner of Triumph Motorcycles Limited, developed an all-new range of bikes that were unveiled in September 1990 at the Cologne motorcycle show. From a six-model range and 2,000 sales in 1991, the company’s range has grown to encompass 17 models, with around 50,000 sales each year across more than 31 countries.

About Triumph

First established in 1902 and now based in Hinckley, Leicestershire, Triumph Motorcycles is currently the fastest growing motorcycle brand in the world. For over a decade Triumph has produced iconic bikes which perfectly blend design, character, charisma and performance. Producing around 50,000 bikes per year, Triumph is the largest British automotive manufacturer in the country.

At the heart of Triumph’s philosophy is a commitment to developing truly unique motorcycles that offer a blend of distinctive design, intuitive handling and performance. The innovation and engineering passion that gave birth to the iconic Bonneville of the 60’s has today created a broad range of bikes suited to all motorcycle riders, including the striking 2.3 litre Rocket III, the unmistakable Speed Triple and the powerful Daytona 675.

In recent years it is the Daytona 675 that has enabled Triumph to truly stamp its mark on the modern motorcycle landscape, a proven class leader in the field. After winning the Supertest ‘King of the Supersport’ crown for four successive years the Daytona’s status has been further enhanced with the MAP Embassy Triumph team’s victory in the 2008 British Supersport Championship.

With an impressive 2010 product portfolio in place, including significant updates to existing best-selling bikes and a striking new model, Triumph is set to continue to enhance its status in the marketplace.
